In a medium mixing bowl, combine the fat-free plain Greek yogurt and skim milk. Whisk together until well blended.
Gradually add the unsweetened cocoa powder and peanut butter powder to the yogurt mixture, whisking continuously to prevent lumps.
Stir in the honey, vanilla extract, and salt. Whisk until all ingredients are fully incorporated and the mixture is smooth.
Taste the mixture and adjust sweetness if necessary by adding more honey, according to preference.
Carefully fold in the mini chocolate chips, if using.
Transfer the mixture to an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions, usually about 20-25 minutes, until the ice cream reaches a soft-serve consistency.
Once churned, transfer the ice cream to an airtight container and freeze for at least 2 hours for a firmer texture.
Let the ice cream sit at room temperature for a few minutes before scooping and serving.
